  • Sounds like a useful task. I suspect that the {{tlx|orphan image}} tags haven't been maintained since Fbot stopped doing this some years ago. How is "orphaned" defined, completely unused or only unused in certain namespaces? --Stefan2 (talk) 11:02, 17 February 2016 (UTC)

:* I defined unused to be no image links (i.e. code that produces a thumbnail of the image) in any namespace. -FASTILY 22:04, 17 February 2016 (UTC)

::* So files with redirects are never orphaned? --Stefan2 (talk) 22:55, 17 February 2016 (UTC)

:::* I'm not sure that's applicable; redirects are basically just wiki-links, which are different from file links -FASTILY 03:58, 18 February 2016 (UTC)

  • {{BotTrial|edits=40}} Might as well try it. — Earwig talk 18:02, 17 February 2016 (UTC)
